Aeromexico Confirms Commitment to Airline Servicebetween Albuquerque, New Mexico and Chihuahua City, Mexico

Airline Actively Marketing Three Weekly Non-stop Flights To Build Traffic
HOUSTON--(Business Wire)--
AeroMexico, the global airline of Latin America, confirmed today its commitment
to provide non-stop service between Albuquerque, New Mexico, and Chihuahua City,
Chihuahua, Mexico. The historic launch of the first scheduled flight service
between these two cities occurred this year on February 9 with a major event and
ribbon cutting attended by New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson and Chihuahua
Governor Jose Reyes Baeza..

Frank Galan, Vice President, U.S. Division, AeroMexico, said, "The airline plans
to continue this international airline service and is working hard to make the
route a success by actively marketing it, giving it all the attention it
deserves to build passenger traffic."

"We have discussed our service with officials in Albuquerque and all agree these
flights serve an important purpose. It is our intention to continue service as
long as we have an agreement that makes sense with our partners and in the
current marketplace," Galan said.

AeroMexico has scheduled non-stop flights three days a week on Mondays,
Wednesdays and Fridays between Albuquerque and Chihuahua City. Connecting
service is available in Chihuahua City to Mexico City, Guadalajara, Monterrey,
Torreon and Tijuana, Mexico.

While passenger loads have continued to be a challenge for AeroMexico on the
flights between Albuquerque and Chihuahua City, Galan said the airline is
committed to giving this service every opportunity to be successful.

Challenges to the new AeroMexico route have been the health warnings and sharp
decline in tourism between the United States and Mexico due to the recent health
issue as well as the impact of the current economy.

The airline believes that there still can be sufficient market demand for the
route now that the health warnings have been lifted, the economy is showing some
signs of recovery, and the service has an opportunity to succeed on its own
merits.

"AeroMexico is proud to be part of efforts to expand travel, business and
tourism opportunities between these two neighboring international states," added
Galan.

AeroMexico and its subsidiary, AeroMexico Connect, currently operate more than
600 daily flights through the airline`s new Terminal 2 at its Mexico City
International Airport hub to more than 45 destinations in Mexico, 16 U.S.
locations in 11 states, two cities in two Canadian provinces, and 12 major
cities that include Buenos Aires, Paris and Tokyo in 11 other countries in Latin
America, Europe and Asia. U.S. cities served are Los Angeles, Ontario (Ca.), San
Diego, San Francisco, Seattle-Tacoma, Las Vegas, Phoenix, Albuquerque, Denver,
San Antonio, Houston, Atlanta, Chicago, New York City, Orlando and Miami.
AeroMexico Vacations provides customized vacation travel packages throughout
this network. The airline also offers connecting service to other international
destinations through its SkyTeam global airline alliance with 11 full member
carriers and three associate carriers. AeroMexico has been recognized for its
award-winning style of personalized in-flight service, one of the world`s best
on-time flight records, the highest safety and quality standards ratings,

based on its competitive fares and superior service. Additional information is
